Chapter 561: A Secret Hidden in the Wind and Waves

ps:

P.S. It's been a long time...... Alas, mom was hospitalized again......

Aisha would not betray them.

Xiulin seemed to want to be sure of something, and kept silently thinking in the bottom of her heart. Even if Aisha is a descendant of the demons, even if she ...... She has restored the power and memories of the demons, and she will never betray these humans who have accompanied her on a journey.

That long-lost memory shouldn't overtake the happiness and emotion that we've been experiencing together for so long, right? She won't deceive them, won't......

The pinprick-like stinging pain grew stronger as her heart beat harder, and reason was still a constant reminder of the fact that Aisha woke up without the aura of Origin Mana. In fact, she didn't figure out what Asha was like, it was just a feeling...... One, the feeling that Aisha will never come back......

Could it be that she took the initiative to leave in order to find those demons who attacked humans?

As soon as she thought of this possibility, Xiulin couldn't help but want to press her chest hard. No, Aisha is her sister, although she has only known each other for less than a year, she is like a real sister, and ...... Aisha: She has always liked Ivan. Why did she do this when people had not yet recovered from the trauma of war?

Is it just because she has demon blood?

"Miss Joan, you...... Do you know where she went?" John's face changed slightly. Xiulin's side face clearly has a cold rain-like coldness.

"How could I know and not say it?" Xiulin quickly shook her head and continued to stare at the umbrella overhead.

John frowned slightly. In the sound of rain, the umbrella trembled like a destroyed fallen leaf. He just wanted to say something more—

"I just wondered, will she ...... What about being attacked by demons?" After pondering for a while, Xiulin suddenly turned her head.

"What?" said John's eyes widened again, his pale face as if he had suddenly heard a thunderclap.

"Ahhh Xiulin's shoulders trembled, and a bitter smile on the corner of her mouth was fleeting, "After all, we don't know." Have the demons who attacked us yesterday been wiped out...... If only they were still on the island...... They're still tough to deal with......"

Xiulin's voice gradually weakened.

Everyone can see that Xiulin at this time has long lost her usual calmness. John raised his hand. Pinching his bearded chin, he looked at Xiulin, his expression was even stricter than Xiulin's.

"No, if the demons are still on the island, then the people of our alliance ......"

Suddenly, he jerked his hand down.

"Mistress Flotica didn't come back to inform us of the situation, she, she's just going back to Idgrasiu...... Or what's wrong?"

......

The smell of potions still lingered in the cramped storage room of Lino Medical Clinic, like some kind of proof of the past, and it was hard to tell if he was really asleep.

Ivan felt as if he was having a repetitive nightmare, and at the same time faintly heard a lot of noise outside the door. In this small space. There are too many traces of another person.

It always felt as if Asha was still here. Standing here like in the morning, yet out of his reach. The call was inaudible, and the outstretched fingers couldn't get even the slightest bit closer to her. Should such a repetitive and chaotic dream be called a so-called "nightmare"?

If you continue to toss like this, there is no way to rest well. But he must rest, or how can he find her?

When there was a soft knock on the door, he immediately bounced up, and seemed to lie down for a second. The wide eyes reflected a gloomy Xiulin, and in the black eyes, there was a look of regret that she couldn't hide even with her usual smile.

"We have. I've looked everywhere. Ivan's reaction did not surprise her at all. She didn't bother to ask Ivan if he was asleep, and just talked.

"Isha she's not in the city, she's not around, it seems, she didn't say hello to anyone since she went out. Xiulin slowly leaned against the closed door, the rain dripping from her wet and drooping hair. Obscuring her flickering gaze.

"Don't be so worried...... Although, you Sister Xiulin, I also want to know where she went. Did she really not tell you anything when she left?"

“...... Huh?" the brain seems to be responding several seconds slower.

"She's wearing your cloak and going out alone...... I think ......" Xiulin slowed down, "she decided to leave this town on her own, right?

Xiulin's gaze fell heavily on the things that Aisha hadn't taken with him.

Yes. Asha must have wanted to leave.

Ivan looked at Xiulin's face blankly, and the top of his head was dizzy, but some fragmentary thoughts emerged little by little. In that abyssal dream, Aisha said goodbye clearly.

She also cried.

The tearful eyes were as bright red as rubies.

"-Aisha won't leave us for no reason, she must have a very special reason for doing this, right? I heard that the Qingfeng Harbor side has been completely destroyed, and the strength of that demon is ...... As you recall, it looks like there was a terrible battle going on over there. Although she advised others not to worry, the worry in Xiulin's expression had reached the point of almost painful Chengdù, "What happened after we left? Perhaps, we should think about why Aisha left, otherwise...... Can't find her......"

Aisha said goodbye.

So, she left.

Ivan silently opened his mouth, unable to sort out the thoughts in his head, let alone how to tell Xiulin.

"Yesterday Mistress Flotica came, but she hasn't come back since, and she hasn't even told the people of Sù City about the news from the Breeze Harbor. I don't really know much about Mistress Flotica, but I think - she might know what happened, why Asha left, or at least, what the demons did next. ”

Xiulin waited impatiently for Ivan to reply. She was going to finish her plan in one sitting, without giving Ivan or giving herself time to get tangled.

She must know the truth.

No matter what happened to Esher, whatever Isha did, whatever unacceptable reasons behind it...... She had to know.

"So, I'm going to rush back to Anglo as much as I can. Mr. John took someone to Qingfeng Harbor to investigate, and the rain outside was finally lighter. Xiulin stroked her wet hair, "Although I really want to say that it's good to wait for news here, but at this time, ......"

Xiulin spread her hands helplessly, there was no need to continue those comforting lies.

“...... What is she doing in Breeze?" Ivan lowered his gaze and muttered in a low voice.

Xiulin was stunned for a moment, and didn't react for a while.

"She-" Ivan glanced at the hairpin left by Asha on the side, and instantly stared at the pure white as if he was attracted to it. She doesn't want this hairpin anymore, and she doesn't want anything if she stays here.

"Let's go back together, shall we?" Xiulin suddenly understood something, and once again squeezed out a reluctant smile, "I don't know when the rain will stop, I think it's going to be fast, right?" Seriously, this time, many things don't seem so simple. ”

...... That's right.

Even though there was still a conflicting feeling in his heart, Ivan had to admit that Xiulin was right. In this short but earth-shattering storm, there are too many secrets, too many secrets about Aisha.

It's like all the things that can't be understood in that repetitive dream.

It seemed that a crumbling wall had collapsed, and he had known it for a long time, but he had been running away. Something had completely changed in the darkness that he had not yet seen.

Still-

I still want to believe something regardless of it.
